KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to four classes of notes issued by GreenSky Home Improvement Issuer Trust 2026-REV1 ("GSKY 2026-REV1"), an asset-backed securitization collateralized by a pool of consumer loans used for home improvements.
GSKY 2026-REV1 represents the tenth rated 144A securitization of home improvement loans originated through the lending program administered by GreenSky, LLC (“GreenSky” or the “Company”) on behalf of federally-insured, federal or state chartered lenders in connection with the lenders’ origination of consumer loans through a network of merchants (the “GreenSky Program”) and the sixth securitization issued under the GreenSky Home Improvement Issuer Trust ("GSKY") shelf.
GSKY 2026-REV1 will issue four classes of notes totaling $500.00 million, collateralized by 100% of economic participation interests in a pool of consumer loans used to finance home improvement products and services originated by Pinnacle Bank (d/b/a Synovus Bank) and Comenity Capital Bank and any additional federally insured, federal- or state-chartered financial institution that satisfies the specified requirements to become an Approved Origination Partner under the GreenSky Program. GSKY 2026-REV1 is the first revolving transaction issued out of the GSKY shelf and the entire pool will consist of economic participations from GreenSky’s Deferred Loan program.
Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Atlanta, GA, GreenSky (together with its affiliates that provide, directly or indirectly, any of the services related to the GreenSky Program) administers the GreenSky Program for merchants and lenders that facilitates point-of-sale financing for consumers in the home improvement markets.
KBRA applied its Consumer Loan ABS Global Rating Methodology, as well as its Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology as part of its analysis of the static pool data and the underlying collateral pool and stressed the capital structure based upon its stress case cash flow assumptions. KBRA considered its operational review of GreenSky, as well as several business updates with the Company. Operative agreements and legal opinions for the transaction will be reviewed prior to closing
